An Early Morning Prayer O God, Thou art my God. Early will I seek thee… Psalm 63:1 O God, I come to you in the darkness of the morning I come just as I am starting to hear the birds singing praise to you I come before the phone starts to ring, before messages are texted or tweeted I come to You, O God, before the flood of emails and voicemails I come before I remember tasks left undone from yesterday I come before the uncertainty of tomorrow becomes fear I come before I try to live out my own plan I come before temptation ripens I come to You, O God, before competing voices can influence I come before I can mistake my thoughts for Your voice I come before I can remember all I want from you and all I want you to do for me I come, early in this morning, to say I love You and I thank You for loving me Thank you for giving me this day – now, I give it back to you: live today in me live through me love through me bless through me empower through me rescue through me give joy through me O God, I come to you in the darkness of the morning, like Jesus did, to make your will my will. In His name, AMEN
